Les Misérables Movie Review “Les Mis.” Short for Les Miserables, (French for The Miserable Ones), these two words have provoked such excited reactions from all my friends. The film’s poster of a pale little girl with ethereal blue eyes is all over my Instagram. Statuses about how you should bring a tissue box to the theaters clog up my Facebook feed. Twitter hashtags of #Lesmis are trending quickly. What is the big deal here?

Feel 100% II (2001)

Pitch Perfect (2012) 3/5: If you are a fan of "Glee" and "Bring It On" go see pitch Perfect. It wasn't my first choice but went along with a self proclaimed "Bring it On" fanatic and admit this was a pretty funny movie. It was a pretty basic premise: loner edgy girl, conflict with the popular clique, happy ending. Rebel Wilson steals the movie and is the main reason you should see it.

Pitch Perfect 2012 is a Girl Power coming of age Comedy that I found very entertaining. The film exploits the current popularity of Glee clubs and what not. Regardless the film succeeds as a Glee film, a Coming of Age film and as a Comedy. The comedy is mostly relegated to the very funny Rebel Wilson and that is a good thing. Anna Kendrick is cute and charming and delivers a performance that serves the film well. I was pleasantly surprised how much I bought into what the film was serving up.

Anna Karenina (2012) Movie Poster

12/1/12...One word: Beautiful. There are many more words needed but I would just sound redundant. If you have ever heard of Anna Karenina you immediately love the movie, if you have heard of Anna Karenina you have read the book and were afraid that this movie would not do Leo Tolstoy justice. Trust me, it does better than that. Joe Wright has done the most superb adaptation of Anna Karenina that no words I put in this box will ever be enough. If you love art, any art. You must see this film.

Liberal Arts -- My favorite movie I saw in 2012

Liberal Arts* (2012, comedy drama, 97 mins) Josh Radnor (Ted from 'How I met your mother') writes, directs and stars in this small American indie film about a college romance. With rising star Elizabeth Olsen and the Coen brothers regular Richard Jenkins. Perfect for a North London Sunday afternoon.

'Liberal Arts' | RATED: ★ ★ ★ ★ out of 5 buckets | WORTH: Matinee or DVD | SUMMARY: This may be an independent film, but ranks high on the list of films with something to say and a beautiful way to say it. From new perspectives found through a burned CD, to the lost art of hand-written letters, to the influences of the written word on the expectations of real life, this film is measured by more than degrees.

大佬愛美麗 Enter, Phoenix 2004

Los abrazos rotos is a 2009 Spanish romantic thriller film written, produced, and directed by Pedro Almodóvar; a four-way tale of dangerous love, and was shot in the style of a hard-boiled 1950s American film noir,[2] or its descendant, the neo-noir genre. Many themes include noir references such as film posters in sets, angular, high contrast lighting and the characters' struggle with their illicit passions. However, like most Almodóvar films, it is filmed in bright color rather than the black

"Benny and Joon" (1993). A mentally ill young woman finds her love in an eccentric man who models himself after Buster Keaton. Johnny Depp and Mary Stuart Masterson start in this offbeat, engaging film.

Favorite movie!!!!! Benny & Joon (1993) A classic Depp quirky movie - he has a knack for roles like this.

Benny and Joon... One of my fave Johnny Depp movies! I made Jacob watch this and he didn't love it but didn't hate it either :)
